Hello All,
Just bought a "new to me" 1976 model. I'll try to post a few pics, but I'm new to the site, so bear with me. This thing's barely a 76' model, as most of the panels have been bastardized. The door handles and side markers have been shaved, and the front headlights and turn signals....well, ....you can see for yourself. At any rate, the car actually has very little rust, and I THINK I can still make it a decent looking cheap project. Thinking about keeping it super light and adding fiberglass bumpers, pulling out most unnecessary parts, and changing the single carb setup to dual carbs....mainly because it doesn't run right now, and came with extra set of carbs, manifold intakes, etc. Looking forward to the project....I sanded/primed the passenger rear quarter last nite, as well as both sail panels. The rest of the primer/bondo was already done by p.o., and I'll be redoing. I'll probably be asking for a lot of advice when I get to the mechanical/electrical portion of the program, so hopefully I won't be too much of a pain in the ass! -Craig |
